    I just switched my home PC last week. It’s kinda funny how Steam games are a roulette of support, but it’s been really fun thus far.
    Was surprised that the government app I have to use is actually open source and on the AUR.
    Can’t fully drop Windows sadly but definitely minimize the usage as much as possible.

    I've had good luck with steam games, although I mostly play older titles these days and not online multiplayer.

    I was surprised that Crimson Desert works out of the box (and I think even loads faster than on Windows) and also that RE:Village doesn’t work (it runs but crashes)

    ProtonDB is a powerful tool to take guesswork out of the equation.

    I do use ProtonDB (esp. for my Steam Deck) and like it a lot, but, we have a saying in German "Probieren geht über studieren" :D

    Weird, Village runs just fine on my CachyOS setup.

    [–] ThunderComplex@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Idk I got a crash and decided to just finish it on Windows (had to reboot anyway). Luckily it's a short game so I wasn't "stuck" with Windows for too long. So I can't really say if it would've kept crashing or if it was a isolated incident, but it never crashed on Windows in the remaining 10 hours.

    Could possibly be a driver issue or something with Linux, Idk Im not entirely knowledgable of it all yet, only been using Linux about a year. I understand though, there were times where I almost considered reinstalling Windows to run something but just stuck it out until I got something to work if it doesnt. Village for whatever reason worked fine for me though without issue.

    Hi, I just recently made a post and it was about Crimson Desert and me searching for a distro that doesn't need any extra hassle for the game to get going. I currently use openSUSE Tumbleweed, but moved back over to my Windows SSD to be able to play the game.

    My question is: What distro are you using and is it an AMD or NVIDIA card? :-]

    [–] ThunderComplex@lemmy.today 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Thank you! I will look more into EndeavourOS. :-]
